An LLC can add new members by following the terms of the "operating agreement." The operating agreement, the document created when the LLC was set up, defines important terms about the management of the company. In general, operating agreements require all members to agree to the addition of a new member.
A business jointly owned and operated by a married couple is a partnership (and should file Form 1065, U.S. Return of Partnership Income) unless the spouses qualify and elect to have the business be treated as a qualified joint venture, or they operate their business in one of the nine community property states.
A new owner can contribute a great deal to an LLC but will also diminish the percentage of profits that go to the original owners. In a member-managed LLC, a new owner will also add another voice to the decision making process.
Prepare an Operating AgreementAn LLC operating agreement is not required in Maine, but is highly advisable. This is an internal document that establishes how your LLC will be run. It sets out the rights and responsibilities of the members and managers, including how the LLC will be managed.
Note: If an LLC is owned by husband and wife in a non-community property state, the LLC should file as a partnership. LLCs owned by a husband and wife are not eligible to be "qualified joint ventures" (which can elect not be treated as partnerships) because they are state law entities.
If you choose to set up your LLC with just one spouse as a member, you can classify it as a sole proprietorship or a corporation. If your LLC has more than one member, you can classify it as a partnership or corporation.
If your LLC has one owner, you're a single member limited liability company (SMLLC). If you are married, you and your spouse are considered one owner and can elect to be treated as an SMLLC.
The straightforward answer is no: You are not required to name your spouse anywhere in the LLC documents, especially if they aren't directly involved in the business. However, there are some occasions where it may be helpful or necessary to include your spouse.
